We start Episode 114 with a review of the fantastic news that England’s Lionesses are into the football World Cup Final after a 3-1 win over co-hosts Australia in Sydney. They will take on Spain on Sunday, who beat

We then look back over the weekend’s Rugby Union internationals and the bemusing decision by the disciplinary panel to downgrade Owen Farrell’s red card in England’s win over Wales. This leaves Farrell clear to play in all of England’s World Cup games. Scotland came close to a second successive win over France, being cruelly denied by a last-minute penalty.

Leigh Leopards won their first Rugby League Challenge Cup Final in 52 years against Hull KR, and Saints won the first ever women’s final to be held at Wembley. We also have the latest from Cricket’s Hundred –

Our guest this week is our resident football correspondent Billy Carr, who joins us at the start of the Premier League season to give his insights on life for Spurs after Harry Kane, as well as his predictions at both ends of the table for the coming season.

In Episode 113 of your weekly sports podcast, we bring you updates and new across 10 different sports, and 3 World Cups.

We start with England’s Red Roses winning silver in the Netball World Cup in South Africa-their best ever showing in a World Cup. We then move on to New Zealand and Australia and the Women’s Football World Cup, with the quarter-final line up being confirmed. England’s Lionesses will play Colombia for a place in the semi-finals after a hard fought win on penalties over Nigeria.

In Cricket, Manchester Originals’ Fi Morris took a record –in both the men’s and women’s Hundred-snaring 5 wickets for only 7 runs, as opponents Birmingham Phoenix were skittled for just 87. Meanwhile in Scotland, Britain’s cyclists and para-cyclists sit top of the medal table with a combined haul of 32 golds, 16 silvers and 18 bronzes.

With teams finalising their line ups for the Rugby World Cup next month, we had a host of warm up games. England were dire losing to Wales, Eddie Jones still believes Australia can win after their 4th consecutive defeat since he took over, and Zander Fagerson became the first player to be sent off “from the bunker” in Scotland’s win over France.

And finally, we talk about “Shi**y Sunderland” after 57 triathletes were struck with illness after high E.coli and sewage levels were reported in the water after last weekend’s World Triathlon Series event off the coast at Roker!

World Cup fever grips Episode 112 of Null & Void this

We have the latest from the Women’s Football World Cup, with the Lionesses topping the group in dominant fashion, as well as the latest progress of the Red Roses in Netball’s World Cup in South Africa, as they try to secure a first world title.

It was also the World Swimming Championships, where 19-year old Mollie O’Callaghan (no relation!) secured a great haul of 5 gold medals and 1 silver. We have the results from the World Triathlon Series in Sunderland, as well as looking forward to the World Cycling Championships starting in Scotland

The summer’s Ashes Cricket came to a dramatic conclusion with England winning the fifth test on the last afternoon to draw the series 2-2.Bowler Stuart Broad announced his retirement during the week and signed off in style, hitting the last ball he faced as a batter for 6, and taking the last Australian wicket and winning the game with the final ball he bowled.

Amongst the other 6 sports we cover this week are Formula 1, Rugby Union and Rugby League, Athletics, Gaelic Football and Hurling.

A truly World Champion episode!

With this being Episode 111 we explain why this is called a Nelson in cricket.

We start by looking back at the rain affected cricket test at Old Trafford – with 2 days of downpours causing the draw that was enough for Australia to retain the ashes.

The Women’s Football World Cup has kicked off in Australia and New Zealand, with both hosts recording opening day wins. England opened with a win over Haiti-but Serena Wiegman’s side looked rusty and will be wanting to improve in this week’s game against Denmark.

At the British Open Golf America’s Brian Harman had a convincing 6 shot win in the wind and rain in Liverpool to take an unexpected first major title.

Jonas Vingegaard secured his second successive Tour de France title, proving dominant in the final week to beat Tadej Pogacar. British twins Adam and Simon Yates had a great tour, finishing 3rd and 4th respectively.

We discuss the London Diamond League Athletics meet, where Zharnel Hughes broke John Regis’ 30 year old 200 metres British record.

We also have a preview of the Netball World Cup and Rugby Union summer internationals, as well as covering Leigh and Hull Kingston Rovers making it to Wembley for Rugby League’s Challenge Cup Final.

It may be summer holiday season, but the sporting drama doesn’t take a break!

We start with Tony & Andy’s thoughts on their Washes road trip. Despite Australia retaining the urn it was a superb game and atmosphere, fitting of a series where the best two teams in the world have gone toe to toe.

It was Wimbledon finals weekend, with new names added to both the men’s and women’s singles trophies. Brits Alfie Hewitt and Gordon Reid won their fifth wheelchair doubles title, Neil Skupski won the men’s doubles and teenager Henry Searle claimed the men’s junior title.

We have a preview of the Women’s Football World Cup that starts in New Zealand and Australia this week, with Tony highlighting some of the teams and players to look out for.

We have our usual summary of Rugby League and Rugby Union- including the ridiculously lenient suspension for Ireland’s Jonny Sexton- updates from the Tour de France, where a fan taking a selfie caused a 20-rider pile up, and a brilliant haul of medals for British athletes at the World Para-Athletics Championships.

With the British Open Golf starting at Royal Liverpool this

We start this episode with the wins for England’s men in the Mashes test at Headingley and the women’s team winning the Washes T20 game to keep the series alive in front of a record crowd at Lord’s.

The England Under 21 men’s football team followed the example of the Lionesses in winning the European Championships, beating Spain 1-0 in dramatic fashion as goalkeeper James Trafford saved a last-minute penalty to secure the trophy.

In Wimbledon updates we look at the seemingly unstoppable progress of Novak Djokovic in the men’s singles, the surprise defeat of world number one Iga Swiatek in the women’s singles, and an unusual retirement due to blisters.

It was a disappointing end to the Tour de France for Mark Cavendish. The Manxman was denied a record 35th career stage win on Thursday and then crashed on Saturday and had to pull out of the tour with a broken collarbone.

We also bring you all the latest from Rugby (League and Union), Formula 1, Golf, the Athletics British Championships (And Andy’s 17th consecutive annual rejection from the London Marathon) as well as a report on the extortionate prices for a 99 ice cream at Lord’s!

Did you miss us?! After a short summer break we’re back- and our guest this week is tennis coach Justin Cook (Director of www.jctennis.co.Uk). Justin joins us as the first week of Wimbledon gets under way, sharing his thoughts on players to look out for and whether anyone can beat Djokovic.

In cricket we start with the controversial stumping of Jonny Bairstow in the Mashes 2nd test, as well as reviewing the Washes test & an ex i ting finish to the first T20 match at Edgbaston. Andy, knives freshly sharpened after a week off, also has a cricket related Get a Grip.

We have a first-hand account from the Henley Regatta from Mike Dinsdale (who usually works behind the scenes in securing fantastic guests for us) giving us insight into what the event is really like.

We have the usual updates from Football, Rugby Union, Rugby League and Formula 1 as well as a review of the first week of the Tour de France, with the Yates twins currently 1st & 3rd. And in athletics, as well as updates from the Diamond League meets in Oslo and Lausanne, Tony has a bizarre world record that is literally on fire!

Another great episode!

In this week’s episode we kick off with a look back at the US Open Golf and an unexpected win for Wyndham Clark on a really exciting final day. Also hats off to Andy Wild, who’s predictions last week all finished in the top 20 (with 3 out of 4 in the top 10).

We have to talk about the first men’s Cricket Test between England and Australia from Edgbaston – where England lost by just 2 wickets in a fantastic advert for the red ball game, where advantage switched constantly between the 2 sides before Australia got across the line in the final afternoon. We also look forward to the Women’s Test at Nottingham, with England giving a debut to fast bowler Lauren Filer, whilst batter Danni Wyatt gets her first test start after 247 white ball caps.

With so much other sport happening, the euro football qualifiers come later in the show, as we discuss England’s 2 wins. Scotland also made it 2 from 2, but their game against Georgia was held up when stadium staff were required to brush the rainwater from the pitch.

In a strange story for us, Daniel Connolly won the man v horse race – an event in Wales where 4-legged and 2-legged entrants compete

And we finish off with not 1, but 2 Get a Grips! Tony vents his ire at Uefa’s minimal punishment of Jose Mourinho and Andy looks at New Zealand’s game against Qatar being called off at Half-Time due to racism.

A fantastic episode that will keep you going whilst we take a one-week summer break next week! See you all on 6th July!

In Episode 106 we kick off with Andy trying (unsuccessfully) to get tony to talk about Manchester City’s Champions League win to secure the treble. He is, however, more willing to talk about West Ham’s win in the Europa Conference final.

Our Golf expert Andy Wild has sent in a preview of this weekend’s US Open tournament in Los Angeles, along with his tips for the title and some scurrilous allegations about Tony & Andy's past!

The Netball Super League finals took place at London’s Copper Box, with Loughborough Lightning beating London Pulse 57-48, to go one better than their runners up spot last year.

In Tennis, the French Open saw wins for Iga Swiatek in the women’s final, and Novak Djokovic securing a record 23rd grand slam title in the men’s. British pair Alfie Hewitt and Gordon Reid won the men’s wheelchair doubles title.

Our guest this week is friend of the show Andy McMenemy- who always brings great positivity and inspiration to the show. Andy talks about how he has had superb results in shifting weight he had gained, and shares the tactics he has used that don’t require any fancy gym equipment or radical diets-but instead require a shift in mindset and just putting one foot in front of the other!

A really inspirational discussion that all Null & Void listeners can take motivation from. Andy can be contacted on: https://www.facebook.com/AndyMcMenemyPeakPersonalPerformance/

We kick off Episode 105 with the surprise news of the truce called between the PGA tour, the DP World Tour and the Saudi-backed LIV tour that brings the previously warring factions together under one roof.

With the French Tennis Open well into its second week we discuss the quarter-finals and semi-finals and who the favourites are for both the men’s and women’s finals.

In Rugby Union London Irish have become the third premiership club this season to be suspended from the league due to financial issues, whilst in Rugby League we look back on the fantastic round of games with the “Magic Weekend” in Newcastle.

The final regular seasons games of Netball’s Super League have decided the line ups in the play off semi-finals, with London Pulse due to play Surrey Storm and Loughborough Lightning playing Manchester Thunder as the teams vie for a place in the final on 11th June.

Following the conclusion of the Premier League and the FA cup final we bring in our Football Correspondent Billy Carr to talk us through the key points of the season, as well as a look forward to the weekend’s European Champions League Final and the final leg of a possible treble for Manchester City.
